Ok cheers dude. Before I did that I went and started it up - no electronic warning light! Couldn't believe it! Took it for a spin and it was fine for most of it but at the end it just went back into limp mode? Its fine again now mind you... Will check TB and throttle now. Thanks Sam

Where is the TB on the 1.2 16v engine? Thanks Sam

4 bolts underneath the car. Stick your head under and you will. You must remove to dust caps on the outside. Sam

Bump

Anyone?

03 plate 1.2 sport replica - 53000 - In a state (it is being put back to standard. 02 plate 1.2 sport replica - 45000 - same as the above but worse. Engine runs only in limp mode and I have had 7 pages of faults printed off this morning. Anyone wanna buy it?

Background info: Had some problems with the cars fuses/relays clicking and stopping the immoboliser light going off. After replacing them and messing around with them alot I finally sorted it and replaced a fried fuse. Since then the car has been running but in limp mode so I took advice...

Its the best heavily modified car I have seen. Looks very well finished. I would never buy it though.

Will they allow me to have it put on the CLiP machine today but send me the invoice to my house so I can pay another day? Thanks Sam

They will make her car higher. 172s are 16mm lower than non-RS clios IIRC but due to the lower weight of the non-RS clios they will actualyl sit higher. I will take your springs if you want and I have some proper lowering springs for sale for your gfs 1.2 Sam

Love the sticker on the back of that Veeeee..!

Bump Strips would be over kill. Sam

I have standard 172 wheels for sale. Apart from the wheels it looks very nice... Sam

If it was turbo whistle why would an engine like the 3.0 twin turbo'd bimmer lump do it yet a 2.7 TD in a RRS does? Btw Tommy boy - any luck with that key? Thanks Sam

I like that.

Oh right ok. Why do all cars not have them? Or is it just larger lumps that need them? Sam

If I were you I would not bother with replacing the airbags on the cup. People you buy cups aren't overly bothered about safety or they wouldn't buy a cup and I don't think you will get your money back. Sam

Why do they make such a sucking noise? Sounds like a massive fan...?

The trouble is its so easy for someone to do yet so expensive to repair and very hard to convict. Sorry to hear it dude :(

Ok cheers dude.

^^ True. Some MEP tried to push for it but bike pressure groups resisted, arguing it would make bikes blend in more and CO2 emmisions would increase (FLOL). I don't know where we are at with it now but IMO it should be implemented.

Right ok thanks. Do ph1 strips slide out the same way as ph2 ones yeah?

Tbh I think peoples perception of when lights should be used is ridiculous. Lights are not designed to just allow you to see where you are going but for others to see you. People say..."I only use them when they are dark...". How about in the rain? When the sun is low? etc... I cannot see...

Do they fit properly? I am thinking they may be too thin for the indents in the car? Thanks Sam

Added you on msn. Go online...

^^ I have 2 clios atm and I am just breaking them to make money. I buy them to break and return to standard before selling on... I am going to uni so will probably not take a car for my first year at least. Wouldn't mind something like an R27 as soon as I come out tbh...

Liquid Yellow with all decals. What can I say - absolutely awesome. Awesome to drive and awesome to look at. IMO it felt quicker than both the ph1 and 2 172s I have driven and handled much better. Feels so much better quality as well. Little bit jealous as the guy who owns it is a mate...

Its not the 15s to 16s thats the issue (aslong as the tyres are lower pro of course) its the difference in offset. The dynamique alloys have an offset of 38 and this is what the car was designed to take, yet the 172 alloys have an offset of 48. Therefore in theory you require a 10mm spacers...

Ok cool. Go with them if I were you mate.

Buy my bucket seats (see FS section) to solve the problem?
